Conditional Colouring in NAV 2013 Pages

Hi all,

As we were facing problem in Role Tailored client till NAV 2009 R2 about the colors.

Customer wanted conditional coloring of rows based on some condition but was not possible in Role Tailored Client.

With NAV 2013 Microsoft have come up with a level of Conditional coloring  yeah still have some limitations. The number of colors that are supported are fixed.

Let's see how is it there -

I was just checking pages in NAV 2013 and seen this.

If you remember a property of Field in Page i.e StyleExpr which used to have value True or False is now have been changed and can take variables as value.

Just have a look in Page Customer Ledger Entries, Field - "Document No.". Below is the property for the field.

So the property have value StyleTxt which sets onAftergetrecord() and get value from function setstyle as shown below.

Then i navigate to Table 21 Cust. Ledger Entry for the function definition and below is the code written in the function.

so i guess its one of the cool feature that every customer of every partner wanted. So lets use it with customer database.

Here is how the customer ledger entry page look like.

You can see lines in Red Color based on condition.
